Sitting down there, I sighed as soon as she had gone out of the office. I sighed, realizing the gravity of my actions. What had I done? Rejecting her had likely shattered an opportunity, and now, I braced myself for the inevitable repercussions she would undoubtedly unleash upon me.

"You're even more beautiful in person," she complimented, and I felt my cheeks flush as she enveloped me in a warm embrace. It was evident that someone had briefed her about me, and I had a strong suspicion that it was Alistair. The thought that he found me beautiful sent a thrill through me. "Thank you," I managed to say once I found my voice, gently pulling away from the embrace and tucking a few strands of hair behind my ears. "You look great as well," I complimented, earning a
